This is a small book - and thus a short review! - but this is to its advantage. It's good to see a book at this price point which is so useful. This book is packed with advice and simple tips to guide budding entrepreneurs. It uses a 'self-help' approach to encourage readers set their own goals, analyse their current strengths and work out how to achieve their aims. Thus it develops some of the key skills of entrepreneurship - especially those of leading, guiding and motivating teams and individuals. It uses checklists, diagrams, questionnaires and cartoons to keep the content engaging - and brief - and is completed by a series of anecdotes, examples, case studies and practical tasks.
